    Ok the other day as I was listening to a podcast of "What drives us". If you don't already know this is a podcast made up of members of Priuschat. Anyway there was a mention of grill blocking. Being that I live in the central New York and my TCH never seems to get up to operating temp in the winter, this sounded interesting to me. Has anyone with a TCH tried this? If so what did you use? How well did you like the results? Bye the way, I love that podcast What drives us and look forward to it each week. Thanks, Rick

    Rick -

    Thanks for the comments on the What Drive Us podcast. We appreciate you listening every week!

    Regarding grill blocking and the TCH, the fundamentals are the same. Just try some foam pipe insulation from your hardware store. Some other TCH owners here on PriusChat might have more information to share.
